Re: [RELEASE][TRANSLATION]: changes to the README file for 4.0

Andrea Pescetti — 2013-05-19T16:28:40

I've committed an updated README so that at least we don't display 
outdated content. Now, depending on how you wish to proceed, the steps 
would be:

1) Juergen checks if there is something else to correct/add (I haven't 
added anything so far)

2) We ask the doc list for a native speaker to proofread the README

3) We start translation. So far, translation teams always used the full
README file. If we want to port it to a PO file too (which might be 
helpful in the long run), the result of
$ html2po -P readme.xrm readme.pot
looks rather usable.

Regards,
   Andrea.

Re: unexpected results with Linux Intel RPM install, developer snapshot

Kay Schenk — 2013-05-19T16:23:20


Oh! Well this explanation certainly helps! Thanks. No wonder. Maybe
something we should make former users aware of too. I, too, usually just do
an install with *.rpm option, but I had some other old rpms in this same
location, so I just tried to pick off the AOO4 ones. But I missed some.

Anyway, all good for now. I am looking forward to some testing now! :)

Re: [EXT] Import xsl filter problem

Ariel Constenla-Haile — 2013-05-19T16:15:05

The extension seems to be OK, at least I could install it, it appears
listed in Tools - XML Filter Settings.... The problem seems to be with
the transformation itself, did you try it from that dialog?

- Select your filter from the "XML Filter Settings"
- Press the "Test XSLTs..." button. 
- Check "Display source"
- Press the "Browse..." button and browse to your test file, 1691624.xml
- this will open the "XML Filter output", press the "Validate" button.
  You'll see that there are two errors

Hi Jurgen,

compiler on Mac and FreeBSD. Linux will be probably next. New 
some API's), use CoreText API's, support of 64bit Java on 


I thought to concentrate mainly on things I can show using the OS/2 
port of AOO, but I can mention this too.

thanks!

Re: Buildbot and Unofficial Developer Builds -- whats up?

Andrea Pescetti — 2013-05-19T15:02:57

It is this issue, right?
https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/INFRA-6217
If I recall correctly, this would be the (relatively!) easy one, since 
the hardware is already available and quite powerful, and it is entirely 
allocated to OpenOffice.


I agree it is important. In this case we have everything available 
within the ASF and this was already marked as "release relevant" in 
discussions with Infra. I hope it can get addressed soon, let's maybe 
try to get an estimate from Infra on when they expect to find time for 
this. Or ask them what we can do to help: setting up a CentOS VM, given 
specifications, is something that several of us could start.

Regards,
   Andrea.

With these fixes it looks fine. Some minor improvements: I think there 
shouldn't be a comma between year and copyright owner in general, and 
that the year should be repeated. So I'd have something like [replace 
(C) by the copyright symbol]:

1. Copyright (C) 2013 The Apache Software Foundation.

2. Copyright (C) 2013 JSC Soft.

Re: unexpected results with Linux Intel RPM install, developer snapshot

Andrea Pescetti — 2013-05-19T08:38:42

I couldn't reproduce the problem installing the latest 32-bit RPMs from
http://people.apache.org/~arielch/developer-snapshots/snapshot/linux_x86/Apache_OpenOffice_4.0.0_Linux_x86_install-rpm_en-US.tar.gz

but I always install with an explicit prefix, i.e., something like

sudo mkdir -p /opt/openoffice-snapshot/.rpm
sudo rpm -ivh --dbpath /opt/openoffice-snapshot/.rpm --nodeps --prefix 
/opt/openoffice-snapshot *.rpm

Anyway, if you install the full set you don't end up with anything in 
"/program", right? Otherwise the packaging must be revised.


This should be normal since the 3-layer office is now removed. By 
comparison, a 3.4.1 setup would have this structure:

/opt/openoffice-341/
|-- openoffice.org
`-- openoffice.org3

while the OpenOffice 4.x-snapshot setup would only have the 
"openoffice4" folder, containing stuff that used to be in other folders 
(in my case, "program" has about 400 files in the snapshot, as opposed 
to about 30 in 3.4.1).

   Andrea.

Re: [Translation] Wrong link to privacy policy in translation

Andrea Pescetti — 2013-05-19T07:11:39

As written in the issue: I would suggest to use a generic link to 
http://www.openoffice.org so that we don't depend on hard-coded URLs.

The English version will always be available from the English site 
footer, the (say) French version could be in the French site 
http://www.openoffice.org/fr , or linked from 
http://www.openoffice.org/privacy.html , or not ready yet... but this 
way we can keep flexibility for the future.

Note that, unless I missed some updates, the crash reporting tool is not 
enabled at the moment, so users who install the official version won't 
see the tool and therefore won't see this string.

Regards,
   Andrea.

I have

 |-- filter/navrh.xsl
 |-- META-INF/manifest.xml

Dot slash in linux is current directory and because i have Filter.xcu in
root, then path with dot is OK. After trying a lot more path's i realized,
i can use simple:
com.sun.star.documentconversion.XSLTFilter,,com.sun.star.comp.Writer.XMLOasisImporter,,%origin%/filter/navrh.xsl,
and with this Filter.xcu is pointing to path (i called extension as
xmll.oxt)
vnd.sun.star.expand:$UNO_USER_PACKAGES_CACHE/uno_packages/lufdfefm.tmp_/xmll.oxt/filter/navrh.xsl

After testing (xsl - only filter, oxt -the same filter inside extension):
LO - 4.0.3.3, OO 3.4.1
LO on Ubuntu - xsl ok, oxt ok
OO on Ubuntu - xsl ok, oxt dont work
LO on Windows 7 - xsl dont work, oxt dont work
OO on Windows 7 - xsl OK, oxt dont work

In attachment is extension and xml (anonymized data)

Maybe is problem in encoding, because xml is windows-1250, but i am not
sure, because only filter partialy works

Christian is an Apache OpenOffice committer and already contributed his

The video seems to be from the "Renaissance4" CWS, still in HG. I

IA2 branch testing of r1484083 merege with trunk

V Stuart Foote — 2013-05-18T21:43:33

So noticed that Steve Yin has done a merge of IA2 with trunk as rev 1484083, assuming it makes it out onto the Buildbot for tomorrow's nightly, this build will need some love from the QA side. Fortunately,  it should have all of the work done on Sidebar through r1483767 so wasted effort there.

Steve, so if the buildbot remains flaky, could you (or Oliver or Ariel) put up a working dev build?

Its been quite a while since we've had a viable IA2 build to work against, and even the r1476794 currently posted is not coming up with IAccessible2 in ACCPROBE--not sure what is going on with that.  But  I think anyone testing the branch will need a bit of hand holding to get the test environment functional--can you please expand the tips: https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/OOOUSERS/Tips+for+branch+ia2

Re: PO file contributions and names

Andrea Pescetti — 2013-05-18T21:24:03

Thanks for the information. Indeed, what we have will often be enough to 
judge whether someone has made significant contributions or not. The 
fact that we periodically refresh the Pootle database shouldn't be a 
problem: we will notice who did the translation job when we approve the 
suggestions, and this will be a huge step forward with respect to the 
"anonymous only" model we would have been forced to adopt with the old 
Pootle.


Sure. We won't put a quantitative threshold. But the new Pootle will 
allow us to see who did the bulk of the translation work into a language 
and (when we have enough committers across all the languages) to judge 
who is making high-quality contributions. And this can be the basis to 
invite new committers.

Regards,
   Andrea.

Proposal for sidebar help

Regina Henschel — 2013-05-18T20:15:38

Hi all,

I'm going to write a new help page for the bundled help for the new 
sidebar window. From a technical point of view it works already. But I'm 
no native English speaker and therefore my English sounds strange 
sometimes. So I need your help.

I have copied the page into a text document. Find it at 
http://people.apache.org/~regina/SidebarHelpProposal.odt
The first sentence will be the extended help tip. The links will not 
work in this text document, but will go to the referenced help pages in 
original.

Turn of text and table boundaries to show it the same way as it will be 
in the help.

Please improve and correct the content and sent the file back to me or 
put your suggestions in a reply here.

Kind regards
Regina

This is rather strange, indeed %origin%/./filter/navrh.xsl looks like

The key point is were do place the Filter.xcu?

For example, if you have

ROOT
 |-- description.xml
 |-- registry/Filter.xcu
 |-- filter/navrh.xsl
 |-- META-INF/manifest.xml

then %origin%/../filter/navrh.xsl must work.

Side note, when you have a string list, it is less error prone to use
<it></it> so separate its items, see example attached.
